Without a doubt. He will make a good faith effort to enact all his policy ideas. He will succeed on some and fail on others. And that’s fine. That is how change works. Also his promises are all feasible.
Do you think he can actually achieve his promises?

Marjorie Taylor Greene didn’t observe a toxic culture — she manufactured it.
The only way to shut the door on her wreckage is to keep her far from power. She doesn’t get to rewrite her record or excuse the damage by suddenly pleading she was “naive.”

In the UK, Tories and Liberal Democrats have been economic neo-liberals nearly all my life, and Labour was hijacked by neo-liberalism after their backstabbers ruined Jeremy Corbyn's leadership.
The Green Party is the only party offering an alternative to the status quo, we could all do with that.

In other words he’s a liberal
This is a perfect example of David Brooks' job to comfort the comfortable, regardless of what he inflicts on the afflicted. Brooks' audience is upset not at the lack of decency, but at the lack of silence from those America never treated decently before: the impoverished, the queer, the brown.
Why have Americans become so mean, sad, and alienated? The answer is simple, @nytdavidbrooks argues. People no longer grow up learning how to be decent to one another: bit.ly/4qskLny

We won't begin to roll back the tide of fascism until white liberals come to terms with the fact that tens of millions of their fellow citizens actively, knowingly, support racist Gestapo policies. Tens of millions of racists were not deluded or misled. How will you adjust your strategy accordingly?

As @meron.bsky.social posted, Eritrean asylum seekers set to be deported by ICE are saying they'd rather commit suicide than face the monstrous regime. This happened before when Habtom committed suicide in Canada after his asylum was denied. 💔
